A town walk in the Numadari area, with its historic shrines and temples.

I went for a walk in the Numadaru temple walk in Chuo-ku, Niigata City. The Numadaru area, with its several historical shrines and temples, is within walking distance of Niigata Station, making it a great place for a walk!

First, visit the Kambara Shrine, which is well-known for the Kambara Festival. The huge torii gate standing along the road is a sight to behold.

The shrine is also rich in nature and it is refreshing just to walk around. Otoko Shrine was also located just behind Hakusan Shrine.

I was so excited that I didn't know Niigata had such a spot!" I walked towards the sea for a while and found a new spot with a number of temples. The first temple I found was called Shinzenji.

It is still going on. Next to it is the 'Siddiqiin'!

It was a spectacular sight to see such a magnificent row of temples. And next to Sichikichiin was a gate that also had a magnificent appearance.

This was a temple named 'Hokoin'. Four temples of such a magnificent scale in a row... Numadari, you must be amazed.

I heard that there are many more temples, but I gave up on this temple walk at this point. I thought it would be fun to come here again, not alone, but with a group of friends who like temples.

Directly across the road from Shinzenji to Hokoin was a rather quaint row of buildings.

If you look closely at these, each one is a restaurant. The sign also has a firm warning 'No one under 20 years of age'. This is deep! Perhaps there is a different atmosphere at night in Numadori than in the daytime. Let's definitely come back again.

I am from Niigata City's Nishi Ward, but I had no idea that such a spot existed in Niigata, and I went home without letting my excitement fade. There are still many interesting spots in Niigata that I didn't know existed...

By visiting places you wouldn't normally go, you may have the opportunity to discover a new face of Niigata that you didn't know before. If you happen to be in the neighbourhood, please take a walk around the Numadari area.
